andre ward is the biggest fight around his weight class yet he comes out and says he will never fight him, just another way of ducking.
hes ducking ward because he knows he will kick his ass just like he was ducking roy jones years ago, starving himself to hide out at 160.
Hopkins came from years in prison to become one of the greatest fighters of all time. His acomplishments in boxing at his age are unmatched. He is about as close to being totally fearless as any man I can think of. He is 47 years old. He should retire. If he wants to pick and choose his fights now he has earned that right.
yet hes ducking andre ward
And thank God for that, who would want to see that fight?
Would have been an awesome fight with this current version of Ward against a primer Hops though.

its called ducking or accepting another man is better than you, can even be conceived as cowardice. ward would humiliate hopkins and bernard knows it, they both do
hmmm so how many fights do you have?
thats after hopkins continually said he would never fight him, wards being courteous because he knows hopkins would get whooped and is scared to fight

OK Hopkins is ducking Ward. Will you go away now?

ward is the man and your hero has no desire to face him, same **** different decade.
roy and ward are both superior fighters than bernard ever was and guess what he did? he dodged both because he could not cry robbery after losing to them.
the great hopkins is fine with not being #1, we should all know that by now, he's been that way for decades

Hopkins at this stage, can only exceed against fighters who aren't well schooled in certain areas, predominantly infighting or in the clinches, where he can apply most of his trickery. This being mainly because he's closer to 50 than he is 40. Hopkins recently said Ward is his younger self, and Ward as we know isn't oblivious to any of Hopkins' tricks because he does them well himself. It's like Bernard fighting his younger self, it's inevitable on what would occur, no point really. Another thing, hardly anyone is demanding this fight.
so bernard admitting he would lose badly to ward? coming from hopkins fans mouth
for the last part thats only because hopkins did such a good job to take pressure off himself and try and get this fight out of the publics eye, im sure ward would love to fight bernard because he would get paid.
Nobody want to see that damn fight anyway...:no:
LOL at people trying to Force B-Hop into fighting him just because he said they would never fight...that is called RESPECT!

So much so, that at this advanced age he became the oldest champion in boxing, then challenged himself against Dawson. Keep owning yourself.
he cherry picked pascal and only fought dawson after pressure from bc and fans
why wont he fight ward? would be biggest fight of his career :baby:
hopkins wanted to fight bute and they both fought dawson, 168..175 same weight class really and they are the same size.
bernard hopkins lost his desire to be the best? or did he ever have it is the question?

is ward moving up or is he pulling a pacquiao?
strange someone who never fought at a division being considered #1 and the man

there is no need for ward to fight old hopkins dude has been done for a while, just cherry picking but he gets a pass cause his old, he took dawson fights cause he knew dawson wont hurt him or his record since he gots the excuse of being old
so basically hopkins is conceding ward is the man and he will never be the #1 guy again, strange to see someone who is regarded as 'great' do that.
yet he already did it with roy jones rematch but in a different way
